January 20 news, now all consumers around the world to buy Apple education discount products, must pass the UNiDAYS verification, and can only place a single Mac, a Mac mini, a MacBook, two iPads, and two accessories in a year.
In order to help Guangdong university students, students in universities around the world can enjoy educational discounts when purchasing some Apple devices such as iPads and Macs, which are generally about 10%. Apple products are generally expensive, a few can also reduce 300 yuan, more can reduce thousands of yuan.
Apple's increase in the number of student order limits is actually meaningless, a student to buy a set of preferential products within the limit can be at least 3,000 yuan left. Scalpers earn 1500, consumers pay 1000 less, and give students 500, it is estimated that many students are willing to cooperate with scalpers. There are so many college students in China, no one is willing to cooperate. Therefore, Apple can only rely on UNiDAYS to limit scalpers.
Xiao Lei went to understand a bit, now when buying Apple education discount products, you need to submit the edu email address, if the Apple ID mailbox and the edu email address are the same, you can directly verify the identity. If there is no edu mailbox, you need to enter the UNiDAYS verification, fill in your current email address, and tell the customer service that you do not have an edu mailbox, Apple will send you an email, send your student ID photo to Apple as required, and you can get a reply in about a day or two to verify the identity of the student.
Speaking of this edu mailbox, you may not be clear about what it is, this mailbox is common to educational institutions around the world, and many platforms and websites can use edu mailbox to register an account to enjoy preferential benefits. However, Xiao Lei went to college for 4 years, and he had never heard of the edu mailbox, knowing that some netizens said that their school was registering for the edu mailbox for students for free, and you can also understand the relevant rules of your own school.

UNiDAYS verification will delay for a certain amount of time, but for scalpers who make money from it, it is just a little troublesome, and it does not stop them from using other people's student identities to make apple wool. Adding UNiDAYS verification may only restrict some student parties that do not understand the rules.
